WWE SmackDown Brooklyn, New York
The commentators are Michael Cole and Corey Graves.
– Tonight is WWE SmackDown, the blue show starts with the presentation of Crown Jewel’s women’s belt. Nia Jax enters and says she has only one thing on her mind now: the Crown Jewel Championship. She wants it and she’s used to having everything she wants. She wanted to become Queen of the Ring and she became it. She wanted to become WWE Champion at SummerSlam and she became it. Everything in her path ends up destroyed and that’s what will happen to Liv Morgan in Crown Jewel. Morgan’s music cuts her and she arrives with Dominik Mysterio and Raquel Rodriguez.
Liv Morgan says she also managed to send Becky Lynch into retirement to become the greatest World Champion of all time during King and Queen of the Ring. She’s been champion longer than Nia Jax, so she knows what it takes to become Crown Jewel champion… but she also knows what it takes to beat Nia Jax. The last time they faced each other, Morgan won. She plans to become the very first Crown Jewel champion. Tiffany Stratton’s music plays and she arrives. Stratton says they can talk as much as they want, it’ll be Tiffy Time at Crown Jewel. She will use her briefcase at Crown Jewel to become World Champion.
Nia Jax starts to speak, but Tiffany Stratton calms her down by saying that she can use her briefcase on her too… Liv Morgan tells Nia Jax that she has people on her side that she trusts. Tiffany Stratton says she hasn’t made up her mind yet. At Crown Jewel, she will cash in her briefcase and take the title from one of the two. But something will make her decision easier… If Stratton takes the title from Liv Morgan, will Dominik Mysterio join her? Liv Morgan approaches her but Tiffany Stratton attacks her!

– Roman Reigns makes his entrance alongside Jimmy Uso. The latter tells Roman Reigns to listen to what he wants to say to him. Reigns needs to let go of this resentment towards Jey Uso. Jimmy has reconciled with his brother, Reigns must bury the hatchet with Jey. If they don’t fix this, they will lose at Crown Jewel to Solo Sikoa and his clan. Jey Uso’s music hits and he comes into the ring through the crowd.
Jey Uso wants to set things straight. This match is only to settle scores with Solo Sikoa, it was he who cost him his title. Things are not yet settled between the three of them. He hasn’t forgotten anything about what Roman Reigns did to him. The physical and mental wounds, and yet, he is there. That’s family. Family must be placed above all else. This time, Roman Reigns is not going to tell him what to do, he is no longer his right arm. They are equal now. On the other hand, the slightest lack of respect from Roman Reigns and he leaves.
If Roman Reigns doesn’t agree, he can leave too. Otherwise, he can act like her cousin, not her Tribal Chief, and they’ll see each other at Crown Jewel. What is his response? Roman Reigns responds: “Yeet”! The three wrestlers celebrate by raising their fingers.
